Police are looking for an armed robber who reportedly stole from a man while he was trying to buy drugs in New Haven, police said.
Officers responded to the intersection of Ferry and Pierpont streets at 10:45 p.m. Sunday to investigate. A man told police that an armed individual pulled him out of his car while he was waiting to buy marijuana and stole his iPhone, wallet and $20.
The man told police that the male robber was 5-foot-10 and has a dark complexion and a short "Afro" hairstyle, police said. The robber was wearing a "green baseball outfit" and fled the scene in a grey Subaru on Pierpont in the direction of Houston Street, the victim told police.
The man robbed wasn't injured, police said.
No arrests have been made at this time. Police have not released the name of the victim because they have not verified his age.
